By default, most routers are set to "Auto" as Gama stated. The ISP hands you a dynamic IP address and allocates a domain name server to you automatically as well - UNLESS you have specifically asked for a static IP address (like I have). All you typically need is to turn your computer on and it should pretty-well automagically find the wireless router as long as you have the 802.11 hardware installed and try to connect. If you can first talk to the router via ethernet and log on to the router admin module, all you should need to do is to set your given ADSL account's login name and password that your ISP gave you. Save the setting and see if it connects to the ISP via ADSL. If that is OK then disconnect your ethernet cable and try your wireless connection again.
